TOUR DE DOPE

Lance Armstrong has been stripped of his 7 TDF titles and everyone wants their money back! Now I am not defending Lance or any other users of performance enhancers (we're not including Viagra are we?) but I want to point out that without Lance Armstrong about 90% of the people who follow(ed) cycling would not even have paid attention to the sport.  So while Trek, and Nike, and the Frenchies at Tour De Dope are getting their money back from Lance can they also please return the money they made from Lance back to the consumers they duped?  And while the rabble is busy lynching Lance let's remember the UCI has not produced any evidence - such as a positive doping test - but is resting their case on massive amounts of 2nd hand testimony.  The people who have persecuted this case have used as much or more resources than those who hunt war criminals.  Elements of this case remind me of the Spanish Inquisition.

I would actually defend him.

I think of aging and decay as being a sort of illness of DNA and the human body.

I do not think it is "natural" as everyone else seems to believe.

I think in the future, humans will learn how to reverse and stop the aging process.

I think people who are doing this now are pioneer, innovators of a sort.
